Injuries have been plaguing WWE lately, with several stars currently sidelined. During a recent Wrestling Observer Radio episode, Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez discussed the recent spate of injuries, including Dakota Kai suffering a concussion, JD McDonagh sustaining broken ribs and a punctured lung, and Apollo Crews dealing with an undisclosed injury.

Alvarez: โ€œWe need to do something here. This is two in a weekโ€ฆ..actually three, because Apollo Crews, I checked on that one. He is also hurt. They donโ€™t have an update yet, but yeah, it was exactly what I talked about last night. He took the back cracker. And I donโ€™t know if itโ€™s his pec or his shoulder or what. Yeah, he was hurt.โ€

Meltzer: โ€œHe was grabbing shoulderโ€ฆโ€

Alvarez: โ€œSo he was injured in that match. And what it is, we donโ€™t know yet, but thatโ€™s, thatโ€™s now three and in seven days.โ€

Crews was last seen competing on last Fridayโ€™s SmackDown, where he secured a win over Johnny Gargano in a singles match. The nature of his injury has not yet been confirmed, though itโ€™s suspected to involve his shoulder or pectoral muscle. WWE has yet to provide an official update.

We wish all injured talent, including Kai, McDonagh, and Crews, a speedy recovery.
